For the 2024-2025 academic year, the EPCA must receive 900 students admitted to the competition organized last May. These future administrators will each be trained according to their choice, in 11 sectors namely: diplomacy, work, school and university administration, health administration, parliamentary administration and administrative management, Treasury, Customs, Competition and consumption, Tax, economic and financial management.
Created in 1978, the large interministerial school, whose programs have been modernized for a more efficient administration, trains public employees in category A, A2 hierarchy. It also trains category B and C agents. The latter are scattered throughout all public administrations (Presidency of the Republic, Prime Minister’s Office, Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Defense, Interior, Finance, Health, Schools, Communities and other local authorities).
